Vintage pinup inspiration- 2016 rewind back to the 50s

As the years go on inspiration from the past influences our style choices. One of those making a come back in pin up style from the golden era. Here are a few looks I have loosely based on the 50's era.

Jacket from Newlook

Dress from Topshop

Nasa top from teeandcake at topshop 

Orange platforms from topshop

Playsuit from Missguided (however this was bought 4 years ago)

Jumper from Project social T at topshop

48 hour tattoo eyeliner

48 hours, I know what you're thinking...yeah right. Okay it may not last 48 hours but it sure lasts more than 24, even when working out or swimming. The only problem I have found is when you are purposefully trying to remove the eyeliner it is a bit tricky.

The thin brush that comes with it allows you to do thin to thick lines and it easy to apply. So far it comes in two colours shown below.

Are you Missguided?

Knitted body suits and dresses over winter are so warm without hiding under a chunky coat or jumper.

Boys jumpers are so cosy.

So I recently got my boyfriend a raglan style jumper from boohoo. He made the mistake of letting me try it on.... it is so warm and fluffy. I think it will become mine soon. It was a great price at £15 and they always have deals on with things such as delivery and discount codes.

This is in the grey marl.

2. Unicorn clutch!
Another great bag to have is the unicorn bag, I matched these with some platforms shoes in the same material that I got from Topshop in the sale.

The unicorn bag which comes in many other colours has a detachable strap to turn it into a clutch bag as well. This bag is from the amazingly weird shop DollsKill.

3. Statment top!
Lastly if people havent got the hint already just tell them with this tee! It is from the online store MXCI and they have similar ones still in stock.

Another Mac lipstick dupe at £1!

So I have another dupe for the mac lipstick in the shade Myth which cost £15.50. The dupe is by MUA Cosmetics and totals at only £1. Its their lipstick in the shade Totally Nude.

Mac - http://www.maccosmetics.co.uk/
Mua - http://www.muastore.co.uk/

The lipstick by MUA is more matte than Mac but a clear lip gloss or balm can give it the same sheen.

please +1 this if you liked it, share and follow please :)

Holiday essentials.

Cant wait for your holiday? Only problems.... Frizzy hair, makeup sliding off and never knowing what to even pack in the first place, Here are a few of my holiday essentials to help!





First for your hair, macadamia oil! Be careful not to put to much in and make your hair greasy. My hair is a natural frizzy mess but after using it and blow drying my hair straight after a shower its smooth, sleek with a bounce.
Best part of this besides the pretty packaging its only 99p and can be found in stores like home bargains and £1/99p stores.

For people who wear make up, here is my second essential, TALCUM POWDER/SETTING POWDER! You can use both to 'bake' your makeup. It keeps your makeup in place for longer and stops it sliding half way down your face.
Here's a video link if you're unsure what baking your face means.

Now clothes, or more importantly the statement bikini. Normally this would mean a red or white bikini but pastel are finally making it! Here is one from river island which I love and fingers crossed hope to one day own.

Of course you'll also need those statement bold shorts too! The best selection at the best price I've seen are on Boohoo.com, plus there are always offers on clothes and delivery.

For a more rock chic look I'd go for anything denim and ripped, they are normally my type of shorts.

Mac BRAVE lipstick dupe!

Mac brave is one of the top lipstick shades right now, thanks to kylie Jenners lips, but totalling £15.50 it is a little steep.
I have found a close match by the makeup brand MUA and its only £1!
http://www.muastore.co.uk/lips/lipstick/1-pound-lipstick

Its in shade 11, but check out their other colours for £1 too!

Top is brave by mac
Bottom is shade 11 by mua

Best skin/acne treatment I have ever used!

I have really oily skin and with wearing makeup most days I break out a lot too, but after using clinique soap for men my skin is so much better.
I have 90% less spots, my skin is smooth and not patchy anymore.
I use the highest strength and found the men version of the face soap alot more rewarding than the womens.

It's £15 but last between 6 months - 8 months when you use it twice a day

If you know any other good skin care products please comment and let me know :)

QUICK TIP Cheap way to set makeup!

Instead of buying expensive powder to set your makeup simply use talc!

Its much cheaper, last longer and makes your face smell cotton fresh. It stops under eye makeup from creasing and you can use it to bake your makeup too!
